What matters is not the feature, but the use case; without a use case, there is no point in including code for SPP in KVM. KVM doesn't use VMFUNC or #VE for example, because they are not necessary. SPP may become useful once we have the introspection interface. Or, if another hypervisor uses it, support for nested SPP may be useful (for example we support nested VMFUNC and should get nested #VE sooner or later, even though the features are not used on bare metal). Right now, however, supporting SPP does not seem to be particularly important honestly. Paolo
